Vintage Norwegian Pewter Dish / Ashtray

This is a vintage Norwegian pewter plate or dish, likely from the mid-20th century.  The plate features various scenes and landmarks from Oslo, Norway, including the name "OSLO" prominently displayed at the top. 
 Pewter items from Norway, often referred to as "tinn," have a long history, with production dating back thousands of years. 
 The plate is a souvenir item, similar to other pewter plates and dishes that were made to commemorate cities and landmarks in Norway. The specific manufacturer may be Oslo Tinn or another Norwegian pewter company, as several companies produced similar wares. With a model number of 044, it is a handcrafted piece that showcases the skilled artisans of the past. The material is pewter and it has a silver finish that adds to its elegance.
